That is an unreasonable way to go at it.

I personally can't see a problem. If I open two instances of app on same or diff
machines/server,
same record, I can't see any interference. I can sit with transaction/dataset open on
one and no effect on the other, no interference. Granted, if one updates from the
second, the one sitting open/idle won't see changes without refresh. Do I care?? I
don't know.

One thing I do notice is that open two instances, have first on first record,
second on second record. Update second/second record. Scroll first to second record
and it is not the updated
version. I guess doing a refresh before edit and refresh on scroll would solve that
but that is absurd.
